Wish EhX Mel9

+1 Hell yeah! I'm relocating for a few months and I'm taking my FM3 & my EHX Mel 9 pedal with me. It would be nice if I could just ditch the pedal entirely though.

FM3 FC Switch Travel Cases?

The Monoprice case seems pretty decent...I just received mine. I can probably lay some cables around the outside of the FM3.

Folks, I have a pending sale/transaction on my Axe-FX III in process already. I won’t mark it as sold until the sale goes through, which should be in a day or so. If it doesn’t end up selling to the first buyer, I’ll update this thread. Thanks, —Stefan

Folks, I’m parting with my Axe-FX III. It’s been racked in a bag in my home studio and has never left my house, since the day it arrived. I’m the original owner and the unit orks perfectly but honestly, it’s just overkill for my needs. I’ve sold various pieces of FAS gear here before and user...

Software FracPad III - iOS/Android/Mac/Win Editor for the Axe-Fx II/XL/XL+, AX8/FX8, Axe-Fx III and FM3/FM9

I just happily upgraded to version III. FracPad has been indispensable to me and I can’t thank the developer enough for creating this application! I’m also glad FAS left this space available for another developer to fill. Win/Win for everyone.

Rack Suggestions for Axe-Fx III

Avoid the Gator G-Pro Roto Mold Rolling Rack Case, unless you wish to do some case surgery: https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/GProR4--gator-g-pror-4u-19-pro-series-rolling-rack-case The from cover won't attach and I assume it's the rack handles on either side. I did find that I could get...

Roland JC 40 and AxeFX

I use a Roland JC 40 with my AX8 and I love this setup. I don't use the effects send/return and just plug the outputs directly into the stereo inputs on the front of the amp. I set the bright switch off and set all the tone controls to neutral. I find this platform to be particularly good for...

Fractal Audio AMP models: Hipower (Hiwatt DR103)

This model has become my go-to amp. In conjunction with a Matrix power amp and a cabinet sporting Fane Ascension alnico speakers, I adore the clean tones I get out of this model. I used to be a Vox guy but in the FAS universe, I've become a HiWatt guy...though, my license plate in the real-world...

Apollo Twin for Recording and Reamping

I just spent a few days, on and off, trying to re-amp with my UAD Apollo Twin and AX8, using output 3 on the Twin feeding into to the FX Loop input on the AX8. Despite my repeated attempts to level match, I just couldn't get AX8-quality amp tones back into Logic. After getting annoyed, I just...

AX8 Pedalboard Build

I'm building the same kind of hybrid setup now. I recently moved from an Axe-FX to an Ax8 and I plan to incorporate four pedals into my signal chain...Eventide H9, Effectrode Photo-Optical Tube Compressor, Effectrode SR-71 Blackbird and Strymon El Capistan. My plan is to run the two Effectrode...

Power Amps for AX8 Live

I have a Quilter Toneblock 201 which I used to drive two 1x12" open-back cabs, one loaded with a Celestial Alnico Cream and the other housing a Fane A60 Alnico. This setup worked extremely well with my Axe-FX. The EQ shaping controls on the Quilter really makes it pretty easy to dial in good...

tablet as a remote display

Is bluetooth a must? While wireless is obviously better than wired, if I plugged a USB cable into my AX8 and then into my iPad via the Apple lightning to USB adaptor, would FracPad work?

Ax8 with guitar power amp and cab - any experience?

Just out of interest, do you primarily use your Gemini with an AX8 cabinet block and the speaker in FRFR mode? Or do you forgo the cabinet block and put the Gemini in Empower (non-FRFR) mode?

RJM Mastermind PBC

I was hoping to find more information from RJM but, aside from a post in their forums stating that control of Fractal products (Axe FX, AX8, FX8) are supported, there's few details available. The PBC firmware 2.X, offers much deeper Fractal integration, or so I've read. On a side note, the...

Do you have the Mastermind PBC Editor?...it's downloadable from the RJM website. The specially tailored AX8 configuration ships with the PBC Editor and is easy to load. I'd be interested to know how the two interact. Since I'm still not he waiting list, all I can do is dream about trying such...

Jay, Did you ever figure this out? I'm in the same place you were when you originally posted this question...on the Axe FX waiting list with a Mastermind PBC in hand. The Axe FX XL+ seems to be a supported device in the PBC editor. Have you configured and used the devices together? Does it work...

Torn between Ax8 and Helix

This was a guess on my part. I owned a POD HD500X and was not impressed with the amp sims at all. The Helix sounds so much better that I wondered if Yamaha hadn't stepped in and extended their amp models to their new subsidiary company. I have no direct experience with Yamaha's amp modeling...

Torn between Ax8 and Helix

I got my hands on a Helix for a week (a friend was traveling and he loaned me his) and this led me to get onto the AX8 waiting list. :) It's not that I didn't like the Helix, I did, it's just that if I'm going the modeling route, I'm convinced, perhaps irrationally, that Fractal is the best of...
